What would you recommend? Neither? Something else?

Is FastCGI the best interface to use?

It really depends on your need...

If you're running www server with lower spec machine, WAMP, EasyPHP, UniServer will work.
I use UniServer, it's lightweight and comes with php MySQL support, from http://sourceforge.net/projects/miniserver/

If you have a decent hardware and want to use ASP/.NET/SQL, you need IIS of course,
it's not hard to configure but you'll need to set up many extra components like php rubyonrail MySQL etc.

As to FastCGI, technically it can reduce server load, but not much improvement on speed like it claims.

I have PostgreSql, the interface to whichever will be done with PureBasic. I just don't have a lot of time to deal with it.

Hi,

I've had very good experience with Aprelium Abbyss webserver (http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/). I think it is very easy to configure if you have never done a webserver before.

Anyway, IIS has always been a pain for me (tons of rights management problems and certificate problems etc). If only the two are in decision, then Apache would always be the one for me.

NGINX

One of the fastest and most secure web servers out there. Nuff said.
